Hedychium – Ginger Lilies
Native to Asia, India and the Himalayas, Hedychium (Ginger Lily) are rhizomatous perennials boasting very attractive flowers, often beautifully perfumed, and equally ornamental, lance-shaped leaves. Evergreen in tropical conditions, deciduous elsewhere, Ginger lilies bloom in late summer or early fall. They spread indefinitely by rhizomes and look great in borders or containers.
